First Thursday February 2015 Picks  My top pick for First Thursday this month has got to be Bill Will's Love Thy Neighbor at Nine Gallery because any artist who uses bread makers, tent poles and felt rockets to explore the absurdity of short range missile warfare simply cannot be ignored. The installation makes a lovely clicking noise too... is it a bomb or bread? Love Thy Neighbor | February 5 - March 1 Opening Reception: February 5 6-9PM Nine Gallery (inside Bluesky) 122 NW 8th  Joe Rudko's Flat Wave at PDX Joe Rudko's latest show Picturesque mines the way the distortions of nostalgia turn once recognizable photographs into a kind of abstraction. In some ways it is a full circle and very zen way of recursively turning photography into an icon but somewhat in reverse of Rauschenberg and Warhol's methods. It also makes sense that his work graces the cover of Death Cab for Cutie's latest album, Kintsugi. Picturesque | February 3- 28 Opening Reception: February 5, 6-8PM PDX Contemporary 925 NW Flanders  ...and last but not least Adams and Ollman has new digs just across Burnside. This is their First First Thursday and Todd Norsten's Chase the Ace exhibition is very different than anything you'll see at any other commercial First Thursday gallery.
